Description

Tag Editor is a handy spreadsheet for audio tagging and organizing.

You can automatically download music metadata and album covers; convert file and folder names into audio tags; batch edit, copy-paste, find-replace, and clean up tags; import and refresh Apple Music or iTunes metadata; batch rename and organize songs into folders according to their artists, albums, and other tags; create playlists; transfer audio across your devices.
The straightforward interface allows all these batch actions in one spreadsheet with complete change control.

Tag Editor supports MP3, AIFF, WAV, FLAC, MP4, and M4A files.
The app can read all ID3 tags in MP3 files and saves changes in 2.3 or 2.4 versions, with or without ID3 v1 tags. You also can save WAV tags in WAV/Info and ID3 formats. Adding ID3 to XIPH/Vorbis tags in FLAC files allows displaying FLAC artworks in Finder.
Tag Editor can import files from the Music app or iTunes, M3U and other playlists, CUE sheets, and shortcuts.

You can edit and load 60+ audio tags, including Album, Album Artist, Artist, Artwork, Comment, Copyright, Genre, Grouping, Key, Lyrics, Title, Track Number, Year, and others.
For your convenience, tags are organized into thematic or functional sets like Music & iTunes, Network & Paths, Audio and File Properties, Artwork, Classical, Commerce, Mood, People, Podcast, and Sorting.
15+ technical properties, such as Audio Format, Sample Rate, Bit Rate, Channels, and others, can be displayed and used to create tags.

AUTO-SEARCH & DOWNLOAD SONG INFO & ALBUM COVERS from MusicBrainz and CoverArt online services. Tag Editor can identify songs without any tags using AcoustID music-recognizing technology. In addition, you can specify whether to download missing tags only or update existing metadata.

EXTRACT TAGS FROM FILENAMES & PATHS automatically using the 'Load Tags > From Paths' command or selecting a correct component from the contextual 'Load ... from path' menu.

IMPORT APPLE MUSIC METADATA, including Rating and Plays, as regular ID3 or MP4 tags using the 'Edit > Load Tags > From Music' command.

SET ARTWORKS by dragging an image from Finder or a browser and dropping it into selected artwork cells. You can even paste an audio file to set its artwork as other tracks' cover art.

EDIT, CUT, COPY-PASTE, CLEAR using single or multiple-selection.

FIND-REPLACE through the entire sheet or within a selection.

CLEAN UP TAGS of wrong encoding, extra spaces, and characters such as leading digits, text in brackets, and punctuation at the start and end of tags.

FIX CASE to unify your tags. You can apply Capitalize Every Word, Sentence case, lowercase, or UPPERCASE options to the entire sheet or selection.

REMOVE AUDIO TAGS COMPLETELY from selected tracks using the 'File > Strip Tags' command.

RENAME AUDIO FILES using custom metadata pattern of Artist, Album, Album Artist, Title, Composer, Year, Comment, Track #, Tracks Total, Disc #, Disc Total, Genre, Grouping, Category, Mood, Key, and BPM tags. You can also edit selected filenames manually by typing, find-replace, and copy-paste.

ORGANIZE MUSIC INTO FOLDERS by its metadata with the 'Export To > Folder' function.

CREATE M3U PLAYLISTS using the 'Export To > Playlist File...' menu.


EASY AND QUICK TAGGING:

CUSTOMIZE COLUMNS with 'View'> 'Column.' Hide, show, resize, and rearrange columns to concentrate on required tags & file properties.

MANAGE ROWS by sorting, filtering, and moving them between windows. Use Move Up (⌥↑) and Down (⌥↓) commands to change tracks' order.

SELECT single cell, multiple cells, columns, rows, or entire sheet to apply changes.

CONTROL ALL CHANGES highlighted with grey fill using Revert and Save commands.

LISTEN to TRACKS within the editor using Quick Look.

Great App for Managing ID3 Tags Quickly and Easily

This app is a life saver. I've been using it to organize and update my large music collection in a fraction of the time it takes to do manually. Very useful for DJ's and muisc enthusiasts who need an clean, oranized and up to date music libray for their work.

I'm only removing one star because v1.0.10 is available directly from Amvisia's website but not in the App Store yet. It has great features like quick searching Google, MusicBrainz and Discogs for track info.

Please and searching Genius.com please so I get lyrics quickly too!

A disaster of a program

I’m sure for the casual user this program is fine. For a professional, what a nightmare.

Having spent a decade as the music director for the largest background music company in central Canada, I am well versed in tag editors.

I was contracted to organize a local dj companies music library. Step one THANKFULLY was backing up the drive. As the library resided on a Mac, I backed it up on a Thunderbolt drive that was formatted Mac OS Extended. Rather than transfer a second time onto a Fat32 or ExFat drive and use my PC with MP3 Tag It, I thought I’d save myself 8 hours of waiting and try a tag editor built for Mac’s. A little research & I purchased a lifetime subscription to this. What a mistake!

I was doing nothing more than correcting punctuation & forcing the capitalization of every first letter in addition to correcting the naming structure of the album field. First off it took forever. This program is beyond slow & I’m on a super computer. I can’t imagine the length of time a casual user would experience in tagging 50,000 tracks.

I just completed the project. It took 16 hours. Once finished I relaunched Serato, a popular DJ program. No files would load.

It turns out this tag editor renamed the filename of every track in the library I was organizing, making the library useless. File path & naming structure are about as important as it gets in the computer world. Programs which manipulate a music library need the original file names to be kept intact so the file can be found. Any change and the library is useless.

In this case a blank space and the character “2” has been added to a tenth of the library. For instance:
Chris Brown-Forever(Album).mp3 has been renamed
Chris Brown-Forever(Album) 2.mp3

The same is true for exactly 4,693 files of the 50,000 ran through this editor. An utter disaster.

I’m now forced to erase this Thunderbolt drive, wait another 8 hours for the files to transfer and go back to the original plan of mirroring this backup drive to a Fat32 drive before finally being able to tag it on my PC with the software I have used for a decade.

Waste of two full days of work for a job I promised would be completed for Friday.

Looks like I’ll be up for the next 30+ hours. Thanks for that.

Good app

a little slow importing but once that is done, it seems to be great at fixing id3 tags and finding missing info.
